Adults and teens come to see me when there is something in their lives they want to change. This may be relief from a harsh inner critic, self doubt, sadness, and/or emptiness. It could be distress from work, school, family, relationships, or social situations. Some people are dealing with the impacts of one or more traumas. Others want help getting to the roots of body image distress or an eating disorder. Whatever the issue may be, my clients seek meaningful, lasting change.
